Download a YouTube video. How???

[psycik]

I've just found that "Free Download Manager" has a web video download function, and this includes youtube.

Now i just need the directshow filter to make them play (rather not use ffdshow)

here's the filters you need for playing it once you've downloaded it..

get the FLV splitter and register it [regsvr32 'filename'] and flash videos will play in everything..

There are basically three ways of downloading Youtube videos: Using a web service, a web browser add-on or a standalone software program. All methods have their distinct advantages and disadvantages. Web services for example are usually independent of operating systems and can be used instantly without having to install software.They do usually lack the ability to download multiple Youtube videos at once.

Web browser plugins require installation. They have the advantage that they work directly on the site which is very comfortable for the user. They also usually do not provide the means to add multiple videos at once to a download queue.

Software programs to download Youtube videos usually come with the option to add multiple video links to the queue before starting the download. They do need to be installed on the other hand and lack a solid Youtube browser sometimes.
